Inshore Fishing.

I have owned 3 Cardiff baitcast reels 100,200(2). I still have 2 200 Cardiffs reels. They are very versatile. I used them with saltwater jigs with grubs, Twitchbaits Mirr-o-lures, Topwater Spit-N images and Mirr-o-lure She Dogs and She Pups. They are worth every penny. I've had mine since 2010. Redfish, Speckled Sea Trout, Flounder, Mangrove Snappers, Tripletails and Gag Groupers no problem.
